80-573: A counter-culture supplement called Core on 13 December 1969, edited by Ed Nimmervoll who had worked on Go-Set since 1966. Frazer soon decided that the "Core" material deserved a stand-alone publication for older readers, and on 1 May 1970, Go-Set Publications launched the tabloid Revolution , co-edited by Frazer and Jon Hawkes. From its fourth issue onward Revolution included a supplement of Rolling Stone pages under an agreement Frazer made with its Californian owner and publisher Jann Wenner . In August 1971 Revolution became High Times (before

Some acknowledgments of financial support, on

In August 1972 Frazer launched an Australian counter-culture magazine The Digger which was published fortnightly, then monthly, and it was The Digger , and not the local edition Rolling Stone , that fostered a team of star young writers like Colin Talbot, Helen Garner, Garrie Hutchinson and Robert Adamson, who rivalled
240-467: A new look and size. Year after year, Rolling Stone Australia has made me proud. They have executed the Rolling Stone mission with style, intelligence and energy. My hat is off to everyone who has contributed to this success over the years and I look forward to even greater years to come. In 2008 the magazine averaged sales of 27,051 copies a month, down from 29,372 the year before and about 40,000 at
280-609: A star contributor alongside the copy Creswell himself generated, the magazine was now brimming with well-written local features and news stories, and incisive reviews. In 1987, owners Paul Gardiner and Jane Maitheson pulled out of the business amid mounting debts and American indifference, and the licence to publish Rolling Stone in Australia was picked up by Creswell leading a consortium he’d assembled with an old school friend, Philip Keir, and Keir's wife Lesa-Belle Furhagen.

For example, original versions of the BSD license controversially required credit to be provided in the advertisement for software that used licensed code, but only if features or use of the licensed software was mentioned in the advertisement.

The Australian version of Rolling Stone was initially published in 1970 as a supplement in Revolution magazine published by Monash University student Phillip Frazer . It was launched as a fully fledged magazine in 1972 by Frazer and was the longest-surviving international edition of Rolling Stone until its last issue appeared in January 2018. As of February 2019, Rolling Stone Australia returned with

Its data partners include the three major labels — Universal Music Group , Sony Music Entertainment and Warner Music Group , the Merlin Network of independent music companies and unions including the American Federation of Musicians and SAG-AFTRA , as well as independent distributors such as CDBaby , DistroKid and SoundCloud Repost. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and The Recording Academy . An API
560-494: The American Rolling Stone ’s iconoclastic reputation for New Journalism. The first edition [of Rolling Stone ] I saw was just so quirky. It was basically a tabloid format, A3-sized, folded so that it looked the size of an A4 page. It was on newsprint and because it was folded you could have the huge image on the front cover. It was very simple, it was just the essence of hipness In 1975, before Frazer left Australia for
600-567: The American edition. In addition to relying on Clinton Walker for major features and acerbic reviews, Creswell nurtured new young writers like O’Donnell and John Birmingham , who won Rolling Stone ’s campus writing contest, and had it not been for its great weakness, its Sydney-centricity – its inability to get good consistent coverage on the ground in Melbourne – the magazine would undoubtedly have been Australia's journal of record for music culture. By

Frazer left Go-Set and High Times early in 1972 and, with his business partner Geoff Watson, launched the Australian Rolling Stone as a fully fledged magazine, five years after the flagship started in the United States. Rolling Stone Australia was published fortnightly, devoted to music, politics, and popular culture, with
680-407: The United States, he closed down The Digger and sold the local Rolling Stone licence to a group of journalists led by former Financial Review writer Paul Gardiner, with Jane Mathieson and Paul Comrie Thomson. One thing this meant, perhaps most crucially, was that the magazine moved base from Melbourne to Sydney. The first Australian act on the cover was Skyhooks in 1976, who reportedly hated
720-697: The basement of the Gardiners’ home in Neutral Bay, and even as it continued to tinker, in the mid-80s, with its format, experimenting with design styles, colour and paperstock – and experimenting with a great many different contributors – it was finally starting to look like a viable competitor to RAM . In 1985, Rolling Stone published The Big Australian Rock Book , a sort of A-Z survey of then-Australian music, edited by Ed St.John and written largely by him, Bruce Elder, Toby Creswell, Clinton Walker and Andrea Jones. The final transformation began in 1986, when Toby Creswell

The magazine also lacked the immediacy and the team of quality contributors that made its rival RAM so much more successful in terms of relevance and quality. Certainly in no way in this phase, in the late 70s, did it develop a cast of writers the way The Digger had only a few years earlier, with only Bruce Elder staying on for
800-508: The early 90s, however, with Next Media now having bought a building of its own in southern-Sydney suburb Redfern, tensions were brewing between Phil Keir and both his wife Lesa-Belle Furhagen and Toby Creswell. The eventual result was that September 1992, saw a traumatic split, in which Creswell was escorted off the premises by security, Keir took control of the company, and Creswell and Furhagen went off together to form Terraplane Press, which launched Juice magazine. Juice aimed itself, with

Such detailed crediting of sources provides readers with an opportunity to discover more about the cited material. It also provides a check against misquotation, as it's easy for an attributed quote to be checked when the reference is available. All of this is thought to improve integrity of

In fiction writing, authors are generally expected to give credit to those who contributed significantly to a work.

920-404: The list of actors and behind-the-scenes staff who contributed to the production. In non-fiction writing, especially academic works, it is generally considered important to give credit to sources of information and ideas. Failure to do so often gives rise to charges of plagiarism , and "piracy" of intellectual rights such as the right to receive a royalty for having written. In this sense
960-710: The local licences for UK labels Rough Trade and Factory Records, as well as signing local acts (such as Pel Mel) – meaning that in addition to Rolling Stone the office was now putting out albums by Joy Division and Cabaret Voltaire. At the same time Paul Comrie-Thompson became a sort of advisor if not manager to Chris Bailey and his band the Saints . A handful of younger writers like Ed St.John and occasional RAM contributors Toby Creswell and Clinton Walker too started freelancing for Rolling Stone and invigorating its pages. The magazine shifted from its old office in North Sydney to
1000-499: The long haul, and P.D. Jack coming and going. As the booms in local pub rock and punk rock started to take off, Rolling Stone seemed increasingly irrelevant, an imported acolyte of all things West Coast with precious little acknowledgement of the blossoming Australian scene around it. The real mark of the magazine's change came in 1980, when it shifted from a fortnightly to a monthly. Paul Gardiner partnered with art director Andrew Penhallow and founded GAP Records, which quickly acquired

In 2008 Next Media Pty Ltd was purchased by Worseley Media , in a deal that saw ACP Magazines acquire Rolling Stone magazine in exchange for ACP titles Tracks and Waves . A few months later, ACP relaunched Rolling Stone , with
1080-424: The magazine enjoyed a boost in stability and success, and certainly it would outlive Juice , which despite its efforts for a decade, went down when the dot.com bubble burst in 2003. Australian Rolling Stone celebrated its 25th year with a special collector's edition in May 1998, and at that time the publishers claimed the current circulation was around 40,000. After Bail and Scatena (and Clinton Walker) had left
1120-569: The middle of a booming inner-city music circuit, and taking on staff that included most notably designer/writer David Messer, Rolling Stone was then left, after the demise of RAM in 1989, with the Australian music magazine market almost entirely to itself. In the face of competition only from the now-widespread, regionalised free street press with its preponderance of advertorial, and now with John O’Donnell as Creswell's Assistant Editor and going glossy full colour throughout, Rolling Stone entered its peak period, with its own flavor quite distinct from

There have been some attempts to extract bibliometric indices from the acknowledgments section (also called "acknowledgments paratext ") of research papers to evaluate the impact of the acknowledged individuals, sponsors and funding agencies. The spelling acknowledgment
1200-417: The photo, but it did mark a broadening recognition of local acts in the magazine. Together Gardiner, Mathieson and Comrie-Thompson built Rolling Stone Australia up as a major player in terms of circulation, shifting about 35,000 copies each fortnight. The magazine, however, lacked consistent local content. The Skyhooks cover was the exception rather than the rule, and an Australian band would not re-appear on

Ed St.John had by now left to become a record company executive, and Creswell was a journalist steeped in the Rolling Stone ethos and tradition but crucially also possessed of a certain vision for Australian music, and it was he who shaped the magazine into its most successful and very Australian form in the late 1980s/early 1990s. Naturally it still relied heavily on its American parent for content, but with Clinton Walker especially as
